Actions Speaking
When I place
My tiny hand
Over your heart,
I am trying
to keep it,
selfishly,
for me,
because
I am afraid that
you will be like
everyone else
I've ever known
and decide
to leave me
crying and alone.

Hi! My name is Elizabeth Davenport, and I'm a college student who loves all things language, no matter what language it is! I'm probably reading, writing, or dancing in the rain right now. I'm a featured poet, Aura, on diesandnoctis.com (go check them out: they're great!), and use the names E.D., Elie Dav, and Elizabeth Davenport when posting my own.
